Consequently, it is not surprising that people who eat substantial amounts of high-fat meatsparticularly processed meats such as lunch meats and hot dogshave higher body weights and a greater risk of obesity, heart disease, and diabetes than those who eat less. As the Nutrition in Practice points out, people who substitute vegetable protein for animal protein lower their risk of dying from heart disease.

A high protein intake increases the work of the kidneys but does not appear to damage healthy kidneys or cause kidney disease.10 In people with chronic kidney disease, however, a high-protein diet may accelerate the kidneys' decline. One of the most effective ways to slow the progression of kidney disease is to restrict dietary protein
